I live over by Jantzen Beach on a floating home but lived in Gresham/Troutdale area for 15 years before moving onto the river.  My nephew is Captain of the Gresham PD.  Have a small MTSO that I run.  I did long haul and went through Nebraska a lot and can't say that I would change places with you.  Love the green even though it takes a lot of rain to keep it this way.   Nice to hear from you.  Did work at Providence Portland for 8 years but not in MT but in administration.

In Portland, OR

MT's working at home get the same as those in the hospital and range from $15 to 19 per hour and excellent benefits, but do not know what your line count is expected to be.  But do know you have to be logged on for your 8 hour shift and producing something throughout the 8 hours.


Here in Portland

Here in Portland, some hospital only have on-site (Kaiser) but others, Legacy, Providence will let you move home after so many months on-site.  But they only have so many slots that are able to be home and so not sure how popular that is or how often they come up.   But Providence especially is moving for everyone to be home.  Again, they are paying 16 to 23 an hour.  But do not know what kind of line count or anything but do know that benefits are pretty good. 


I'm from Portland, but we moved to SM

Nebraska last July.  (We actually lived in Gresham.) I really miss Oregon so much!  I worked at Kaiser and loved it there.


I thought the program at Mt. Hood Community College was really great.  It really prepared a new MT.


:) Are you from the Portland area?  If you went to the AAMT convention last May I was there!  My first convention.  It was fun.


Have a great day, Patti! :)


Chickadee


I lived in Portland for a while...(sm)
but I am back in Iowa now and wouldn't go back to Portland for the world.  It's beautiful, but I guess I just like my four seasons and all the wonderful reasons to live in Iowa! 
I agree about Portland...
Nothing really great, but I do like DeMillos Floating Restaurant! Hope you had a chance to stop there.
I always like to go to Freeport, not Portland
Freeport is the shopping mecca!!! Bar Harbor is also a very beautiful place to visit...Acadia National Park, Cadillac Mountain, Thunder Hole, and Sand Beach.
